The Effect of Teacher Personality on Student Performance and Engagement

    The present research investigates the significant impact of teacher personality on student academic achievement and level of involvement within educational settings. The objective of this study is to investigate the degree to which distinct aspects of teacher personality, including communication style, approachability, excitement, and flexibility, are associated with differences in student learning outcomes and classroom engagement. The study aims to identify significant personality qualities shown by teachers, evaluate their impact on student performance and engagement, and investigate possible approaches to enhance the teacher-student relationship. The study has great importance due to its ability to provide valuable insights for educational policy, better the effectiveness of teacher training programmes, and improve classroom practises by highlighting the crucial influence of teacher personality on student achievement. Utilising a mixed-methods methodology, this research  incorporates quantitative analysis of student metrics and surveys with qualitative insights derived from interviews conducted with teachers and students. In summary, this study enhances our understanding of the complex relationship between teacher personality and student academic performance, offering useful insights for the improvement of teaching practises and educational enhancement.
